Just found out this story has 4 volumes so far, and the author plans to end it at the 5th vol, which will be released in winter 2027... oh boy i wonder what will be going on in the upcoming volumes, like it can sway pretty much anyway. And with that Natsuki guy from Shosuke's previous high school in Kansai looking like he's about to stir the pot...
If I'm being honest I can see the author makes Shosuke and Makoto endgame, like it's the more common direction for this typa story and like a lot of signs so far point to that, but I could be wrong and I hope I am wrong and the author is going to surprise me... please translation, official or not, come here fast!

Listen guys... Shusuke and Hokuto!!! My seke dreams lololol
But this is such good story writing. Keeps me on edge and makes me wanna support both
Shusuke and Hokuto and Makoto AND baseball (i dunno anything about baseball lol). Like it's just so wholesome and supportive and I hope it remains this way
